Using same email address for more than one username
« on: February 24, 2018, 02:43:30 pm »
I am looking at moving my group from another host to this one.


A problem I have encountered is the inability for more than one member to have the same email address.


Example 1: I need to have my admin account and my normal user account to use the same email address.


Example 2: Man and wife have separate accounts so the "New posts" indication are separate for each. However they want to use the same email address.


Is there a configuation option I have overlooked to permit email addresses to be used on more than one account?


If there is no configuration option for this is there a code change I can do in the template to get around this road block?

There is no way to overcome that. Each username needs a distinct email.
Otherwise you can't do foot your password and other functions.
